"overall, we were quite pleased. My only gripe is that the office would close for lunch at times when I needed the help of a live body. But the facility, storage unit and access to them were basically fine."

Sharron - Chicago, ILApril 30, 2015

"I was very pleased with the staff who was very friendly and helpful in helping me to select the right size storage space for me. They even explained the benefit of me earning a free month of service on the storage space that I'm using. It turned out fine, the worksite is easily accessible and the security system is just fine."
